Will the agony ever end for MH370 families? Now search teams think they may be looking in the wrong place for debris amid fresh rumour it may have LANDED

Sources with the search team say the aircraft may have landed somewhere, rather than crashed into the Indian Ocean as previously believed
If no debris is found in the next few days the team may shift search focus
Fits with alleged sightings of MH370 at the time of disappearance

I was thinking that if the plane was experiencing mechanical problems or a fire and from their flight plan in the pic below, their position was closer to land, so it would be common sense for them to turn around and either make their way back to Kuala Lumpur's airport, or try to land.

Did the Malaysian authorities look along the path flight immediately around the area where they changed course?

Something tells me with all the mechanical problems their planes are experiencing, they should be looking in the dense forests.
